Be Kind to Me ~ Michael Hurley from "Armchair Boogie" Told you once and I told you twice: Why be mean when you can be nice? Come on, be kind to me! Can’t you see I’m in misery? I hardly feel like a mustard seed ‘cause your love is what I need Come on, be kind to me! Can’t you see I’m in misery? I’m the ace of hearts and she’s my queen, the best old girl you ever seen Come on, be kind to me! Can’t you see I’m in misery? I told you, child, when you were sixteen, I wanted you, girl, to be my queen Come on, be kind to me! Can’t you see I’m in misery? A bull frog sitting on a lily pond And I was holding her in my arms Come on, be kind to me! Can’t you see I’m in misery? I call you on the telephone Tell me why you’re never home Come on, be kind to me! Can’t you see I’m in misery? The same chord progression repeats twice for the 'mouth trumpet' solo. During the second progression the vocals return and the song ends like this: Be kind to me! Can't you see I’m in mi-i---ser-er-er---ree-eeeeee-eeee? end on
